Anyone 6dpo and due in a week or so?

[Gspps]

Hey everyone I’m 6dpo, I think we timed dtd okay 1/2 days before ov, still got 5/6 days till I can test 😭 longest wait ever. I don’t feel much different just been cramping and tired. Anyone else with me?xxx

@BWaiting

Morning! Hope you lovely ladies are doing well. So I'm 10dpo but I think AF might be arriving today....how?!? Had some spotting this morning but it's the kind where AF usually follows. So my cycle might be very short this month. Strange as I've had a good run of 28day cycles. The body works in funny ways! Will definitely be using OPK next cycle to be as accurate as I can with it as I didn't do that this month and just went off the app dates. Feeling a bit disheartened but also looking forward to getting on with the next cycle.

Morning!

That does seem odd that it’s arriving early! Could it be implantation bleeding ?

I’m 9dpo and getting really bad cramps 😢 but from what I remember I would get this normally xx

9dpo glad I have no tests or I'd be driving myself mad. Apart from a few twinges in the night nothing this morning. Just my terrible skin still. This is it at the moment, pink splotches and my face is soo dry and itchy.

Morning ladies!

@BWaiting it may be that your app was slightly out this month lovely. When I came off my pill last January and started TTC I notice my cycles fluctuated by a few days (always more when I was sure I could be pregnant 🤣) your mind goes crazy ey!!! It could be implantation though? Like @Gspps said ☺️

@Gspps owww hun don’t count yourself out yet!! Lots of people get usual pre AF symptoms as their BFP symptoms too. I’m holding out hope for you ☺️ Will you be testing early? Or just waiting AF?

@MommaSB oh bless you that looks itchy!!! I have really sensitive skin, I recently switched to an oil cleanse and deep Shea butter moisturiser, my skin is amazing now!!! 🤩 definitely recommend. Although my hands are so so dry, I blame the weather and washing them so damn much!! Lol!

10PO here girls 😅 felt really positive last week, was having “symptoms” I hadn’t had before. But now I don’t feel much different and I’m sure AF will show soon 🙄 I try and monitor my RHR on my Apple Watch as it’s meant to rise after OV and tail off before AF.. so that’s sending me crazy!! Frers should arrive today, so may test tomorrow if I’m feeling fruity 😂😂 x x x

@Izzie94 I think I’m actually going to wait until Friday now ... which is when af is due and I’ll be 13dpo and so I’ll either know by getting af or a bfp 😆 fingers crossed xx

@Gspps definitely the best way!! I always find I like living in my little bubble of “ooo I might be pregnant” then AF arrives, I’m moody and miserable for a day and then get positive for a new month and new try. I honestly was so naive when we started though, I stupidly thought we’d fall pregnant within a few months 🙈 they tell you at schoool if you have sex once you’re pregnant hahaha!! Xx

@Izzie94 I have been using the app for the last 8 months just to plot my AF days.
But now that I'm TTC (first cycle) I think the app probably may not be as accurate with the O days. Do you use OPK?

@Gspps I'm not sure if it is implantation bleeding as it really does feel like AF is on her way today. Must be all the thinking and stressing I'm doing!

@MommaSB I'm just the same, if I had tests, I would be using them every day!! Really trying my best not to run out and get one! I hope the itching and redness calms down for you.

@BWaiting I definitely think once you start TTC your cycles go a little funny.. I’m not sure if it’s because we focus on them or not! 😅 bloody annoying though isn’t it! So I never used to, for around 8 months. Then my friend suggested it to me (she fell first month using them!) I used them once and they confused me a little. BUT, started again from this year I used the clear blue dual hormone (expensive but so easy) you use FMU with this one, flashing smileys for high fertility days then a solid smiley for Ov!! (Which usually happens 12-36 hours later) I also had some cheapy opks I used which then lined up with them ☺️ I actually find it less stressful using them as I know when to expect AF and don’t keep thinking “ooo it’s a day late I could be pregnant!” But never actually knew when I properly O’d! I found this month I ovulated 5 days earlier than my app predicted!!! 😨 although I suspect a shorter cycle this month - not sure if it’s because ive taken seven seas (read its made people’s cycles longer not shorter though!) but I’m happy with this as my cycles were around 32-34 days long. I’d much rather my predicted 26/27 day cycle this month! X

@Izzie94 I didn't think about them at all until I mentioned to my friend that we might start TTC and she said "better stock up on the OPK"....and then that got my mind thinking!
I didn't use any of this or even an app when I was TTC 9years ago, and I didn't stress this much either. But my gosh this TWW is driving me nuts with every little twinge and cramp I'm like "yes this is a symptom!!" Haha.
Thanks for the help, I think I will go with the CB for next month and hoping I'll be calmer about it all too. Working from home really doesn't help all of this, I need to keep my mind as busy as I possibly can

@BWaiting hahhaa I was exactly the same!!!! I was so blasé with everything to begin with. Sometimes I wish I had never of googled so much and have been none the wiser 😂 worrying that I know too much haha!! Did it take you long to conceive previously? Oh god don’t it’s awful isn’t it!!! 🤣 working at home definitely hasn’t helped as I can constantly go on and check my phone!!! Whereas in the office I’d be busy and never google too much x

Hello ladies I hope it’s okay to join. I am 9dpo, I ovulated 4 days earlier than expected my cycle fluctuates a bit but I used OPK to test thankfully. We are on cycle three now TTC and it’s very hard. Last month I was sure we did it as I had every symptom under the sun the week before AF but this month I feel nothing. So worried I am out again but not testing until at least 12dpo. Hope everyone is doing well. Xx

@Izzie94 haha I'm glad I'm not the only one, I'm constantly looking on google and on the threads on this app reading everyone else's experiences, but I think it's good to know that everyone is different.
With my first I don't remember how long it took but i think it was quite quick. I was also only 24 so age was on my side!
I have had two PG since then, again I wasn't TTC long, but both ended in MC at 8weeks with no heartbeat. So a bit of a rollercoaster. Taken nearly 2 years for me to want to TTC again and now I've finally agreed to it I just want it to happen asap before I change my mind haha
Do you have any children? x

Evening girls, just catching up.
@BWaiting it may be implantation bleeding like the others have said. So don’t give up hope.

Still got no symptoms 🙄😂 I think this is the first month I haven’t had any. So god knows what’s happening. I can test on Saturday but don’t think I will xxx

Morning everyone, I’m 10dpo today and getting really bad period pains feels like I’m going to come on 😢 not due until Friday. Anyone else had this?xx

Morning ladies!!

I think I’m around 9/10DPO. Negative on my frer this morning so won’t be testing again!! I’ll await AF on Saturday /Sunday 😩 onto month 14...

@Happythoughts91 no symptoms could be a good thing!! I’ve read lots of posts about no usual pms / symptoms and a BFP ☺️

@Gspps I’ve not, but I’ve also not had a BFP yet either.. have heard some ladies before say how they had really bad cramps before they got their BFP!! So I hope it’s a good sign for you! Xx

Morning, hope you're all doing well today 😊

I had some spotting yesterday which some said may be implantation bleeding at 10dpo.
To me it felt like AF arriving early.
This morning the spotting has become a little more than just spotting, I knew AF had arrived (due Friday though) but I still took a FRER because I knew if I didn't, I would still be thinking about it all day even though AF is arriving slowly.....and as I thought, it was a BFN.
So that's me out this month.

@Gspps hoping your cramps are a sign of a BFP 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Fingers crossed for you this month you’re still not out!❤️

I hope so! Really hating this wait I might test tomorrow as I’m getting impatient now haha xx

That’s so weird it’s came so early! Our bodies are so weird aren’t they. Positive vibes for next month though 🥰

Thank you, I’m not sure what to think tbh! Guess I’ll find out in the next few days xx

Evening girls,

@Izzie94 keep positive, your not out until AF arrives. Thank you for sending positive vibes my way too. I haven’t even thought of that, I’m sure not I’ll wake up tomorrow with all the symptoms lol

@BWaiting oh no sorry to hear that. I know it sounds silly but I always feel so much better when AF arrives as I can’t look forward to starting a new cycle xx

Morning girls,
How is everyone ? Have we got any updates ?😃

I’m 11dpo and 2 days until af... just been having loads of cramps like normal, resisting the urge to test!! Xxx

Morning all, also at 11 dpo. 2 days till af, but feel like she is coming. Got that hot and heavy feeling I ususlly get. However temps are still fairly high so we will see. Not testing yet!

@Socu3 wow we’re on the exact same cycle!

I feel really hot too, my temp has gone up by 0.1 I’ve never done bbt before so not sure if that’s normal or not.
I’m going to try hold off testing too. Fingers crossed for us all xxx

Also 11dpo! Tested this morning like an idiot and BFN...but its not over until she arrives. Hiding my tests now will prob test again Sunday. Temp is 36.9 has been for 2 days now, was 37.3 3 days ago. I'm new to temping though so not sure what it means entirely. Fingers crossed for us all x

I also keep getting period pains so confused 😭

Hi ladies

I'm 12 DPO, been TTC since my MMC in June with no joy.
Been symptom spotting like crazy and am convinced I'm due my period. But also convinced this is the month!
I caved and did a clear blue test this morning. I don't trust my eyes but I'm convinced there is the faintest line, but husband says not. Mumsnet won't let me post the pic yet. But can I ask for some gentle line eyes later today.
Think I'm gonna get some first responses later today. I'm due AF on Saturday.

It's so unfair how similar early pregnancy and pre period symptoms are
